Tony Rea to host Welsh coaching
clinic

London Broncos Rugby League Club and Aberavon Rugby Union Club will host a coaching clinic and media day ahead of London's game on the road against Widnes Vikings.

The Coaching Clinic will be conducted at Aberavon Rugby Union Club from 4pm on Wednesday 28th May.

London Broncos head coach Tony Rea will be joined by other leading development coaches in hosting the clinic. The day will have an emphasis on modern day rugby league techniques and their application to and impact on coaching of rugby union.

The day will end with a 'question & answer' session with Tony, Broncos' Chief Executive Nic Cartwright and Chris O' Callaghan, Coach of Aberavon Rugby Union Club. All the stars of Welsh Rugby League past and present have been invited, and the new Rugby League Conference Clubs will also be in attendance.

O' Callaghan said: "This is a great initiative. As well as staging a top-flight event, the Broncos are also putting something into the community and trying to make a real contribution to the game here.

I am sure that after this clinic, and then after the Broncos Super League event, rugby league will be improved for the experience."

I encourage anyone in Wales who is interested in either code, to come along and give this event your support."

Also on the agenda will be the Tetley's Super League event (London v Widnes) to be played at Aberavon on Sunday 8th June.
